The chief of the secret service division is informed of the arrest of Wm. C. Casey of Altoona, Pa., in New York ciiy Friday evenir,:. Casey is said to be one of a band of smugglers who have been very success- ful in taking Chinamen across the border into New York and Vermont. The Chinese companies, of which there are several in New York, and three or four in Boston, take the Chinamen as far as the Canadian border. They contract with their friends to do this, but there their contract ends, and the Chinamen must find their own way of getting into the states. Many persons living in the small towns along the Canadian border, it is said, make large sums by guiding the arrivals over the line and to the nearest city. The charge is generally $125 to 3150 each, and parties of eight and ten are frequently taken across at night and successfully started on their journey toward New York or Boston, where most of the Chinamen smuggled in the east eventually settle. In Vermont the towns of Richford and Burleston and the cities of St. Albans and Burlington are looked upon as landing sta- tions for the smuggled Chinamen, and when the treasury agents at these points become too watchful a change is made, and Rouse’s Point and Plattsburg are chosén as the most available. When Platisburg is chosen the Chinamen are taken in boats twerity- five miles down Lake Champlain and are landed at some out of the way point. Not infrequently the beats containing the Chi- namen meet with disaster,,and the loss of many Chinamen has been recorded while making the voyage. The Chinese companies which contract to bring the natives from China to Canada generally land the men either at St. John cr at Montreal, and they are then taken in hand by the smugglers, who are always on the lookout. Arrests for the offense are frequent, and in the winter of 1804 a half dozen special treasury agents visited Mott, Pell and Doyers streets, New York, and made wholesale arrests of Chinamen who were engaged in the business of smuggling their countrymen into this country through agents who wert at the border. It is. al- most impossible for the treasury agents to properly patrol the Canadian: border, as the distances are great and, the number of agents comparatively small. Nobody is better informed of the movements of the treasury agents than the smuggiers them- selves, who, when they find that one point on the border is protected, hasten to anoth- er and distant point, where the smuggling goes on with but slight interruption.

YESTERDAY The National Geographic Society set out yesterday on its proposed excursion by way of the lecture platform from Washington to San Francisco and back. The excursion includes upward of 250 Washington people, many of whom are well known in scientific, official and social circles. The tickets are elaborate’ affairs, with seven coupons, the first of which was taken up yesterday on the occasion of the half-hour lectures by Dr. David T. Day and Mr. G. K. Gilbert of the geological survey, the former having as his topic “Across the Appalachians” and the latter “A Side Trip to Niagara Falls.” The lectures are delivered in the hall of Columbian University Mondays and Fri- days, beginning at 4:15 p.m. The second coupon calls for a lecture from Prof. Ed= ward Orton on the journey from Pittsburg to St. Paul, and by Mr. Walter Weed on the region from St. Paul to Yellowstone Park. The third coupon is made to cover the distance from the park to Sacramento, Mr. E. T. Perkins describing the trip. down the Columbia, Mt. Rainier and Portland, Ore., and Mr. J. S. Diller the journey from Portland, including Crater lake and Mt. Shasta, to the city of Sacramento. The fourth coupon enibraces a description of Sacramento, the Golden Gate, Yosemite and San Bernardino, by Mr. Arthur P. Da- vis, and the region from San Bernardino across the deserts to San Francisco moun- tain, Arizona, by Major Powell. The fifth coupon, Monday, April 1, is given up to the Grand Canyon of the Colorado and Sonora, Mexico, by Messrs. Charles D. Walcott and W. J. McGee. Over the Mountains. The sixth covers the trip across the Rocky mountains, by Prof. A. H..Thomp- son and Mx. F. H. Cushing. The seventh entitles the holder to a comprehensive idea of the country between Denver and the Potomac, Mr. F. H. Newell describing the trip from Denver to Pueblo, down the Ar- kansas river and across the plains to St. Louis, and Major Jed Hotchkiss the itin- erary from St. Louis to Washington, through the coal fields, through the farms and over the mountains of the old domin- ion, with side glimpses of the famous caves of Kentucky and Virginia. The first lecture called for in this novel and interesting course was given yester- day afternoon at the Columbian University Hall by Dr. David T. Day on the journey from Washington to Pittsburg. The lec- turer spoke in part as fololws: Into the Mountains. “Now riding along the Susquehanna to Harrisburg, and farther to Peters moun- tain, we have crcssed the great Cumber- land valley and have left the western edge of the Piedmont plateau and entered what is really a valley system, across which the road runs to the western edge of the Alle- gheny mountains, for the central portion of the Appalachian mountains,which should | be a crest, is here a valley, with the Blue Ridge for an eastern margin, gheny front as the western si region between has, as we know, by lateral pressure, been converted inio a seri great ridges and valleys. This taountain which we see is chara: the system. As we look back it extends for twem€y miles or more in a straight, un- broken ridge of singularly even height. In fact, it looks like some old wall or railroad embankment recaptured by nature, by {ts dense green covering. Of such mountains as these we will see no more until we re- turn to the Appalachian. Elsewhere our mountains will be grand and -ugsed peaks, but these beautiful, even, wooded ridges, ith their foliage, which changes, not only with the effects of the frost in the fall, but even more beautifully from light to dark green, with the clouds passing overhead. It is this feature, together with the blue Juniata on the left, which has changed the fashion of car building and evolved obser- vation cars. We must think as we see these ridges that their geological structure is not only interesting for its scenic attrae- tions, but this Medina sandstone, whose erduring character has capped these ridges, stards up in the air after all the softer rocks have been washed away: “It is interesting to notice, as the train winds among these mountains, that the sides of the road are not wild forests, but a series of well-developed thrifty towns and popuiated valleys; this is strange, consider- ing the rugged character of the ridges we pass. If we cross the Alleghenies in some other region this is not true to the same extent, and for this reason we must think of a peculiar combination of thrifty Con- necticut farmers, with persistent Scotch- Irish fron-makers. which led to this de- velopment. For our Indian predec had thrived here as well as their Sc Irish followers. They were vigorous and enterprising. There are more historical points than mile stones, and more monu- ments of massacres than block signal sta- tions along the railroad. As a prominent example, let us leave the line for a study of the Wyoming valley, some distance to the north. This valley, the first struggle of the white man with the Indians, was made by settlers from Connecticut, a few of whom had told the story of the valley's’ wonderful fertility to their eastern rela tives. The struggle was short and the Indians conquered; twenty of the settlers were massacred, and the rest found their- way back to Connecticut, only to returm the next fall to find that these lands, in- cluded in the Plymouth grant as part of Connecticut, had been bought Indians by ‘Penn's followers, and were in the pessession of the Pennsylvanians. The result was persistent warfare for the pos- session of this valley, in which the Connec- ticut settlers won again and again, and it, was finally decreed that they should con- tinue in peaceful possession. In the sec- ond year of the revoiutionary war, when the young men of the valley had gone off to service, the British and Indians, to- gether, entered the valley and the famous ‘Wyoming massacre resulted.” “But already anthracite coal had been discovered, and its use gradually spread in blacksmiths’ forges and households. The industry grew, and in this development cree more the valley was subjected to murder, and, although not on a large scale, mcre menacing for the community than any that had preceded it. This was due to the Molly Maguire organization, which found its headquarters here in Wilkesbarre._ They laid their secret plots down in the mines, waylaid unpopular bosses in the darkness of the tunnel, until they threaten- ed the destruction of the entire industry. Fortunately, there were two men with the necessary courage and cunning to face this ecndition of secret murder, and successful- ly battle with it—Eckley B. Coxe and Franklin Gowen. No one in the anthracite region will ever forget the memorable day when these two men, bearing, together with Pinkerton, this whole investigation, defied the power of this organization in cpen court, and brought the leaders to justice. “This Wyoming alley is typical as one of the anthracite coal fields. In the short time we have left it is impossible to do more than call your attention to the fact that here two long ridges of mountains, running, as usual, northeast and southwest, curve around at the ends of the ridges, making a loop of hard sandstone. Inside of this spoon-shaped rim the coal has been protected from erosion. The beds are thirty feet thick, admitting of mining on an ercrmous scale, have developed some of the finest mining machinery in the world, Jchnstown Reached. “Every one knows how the road follows down the valley of the Conemaugh, a stream so memorably susceptible to moun, tain floods, znd which, with the bursting of @ dam on one of its tributaries just above Jchnstown, devastated that city. It 1 difficult to find traces of that flood now, for the Cambria Iron Company at this place is so large as to effect the immediate rebuilding of the town. This Johnstown and its great Cambria iron works seem well located, for all along the hillsides of this Conemaugh valley small openings are seen from_ thé” with a ‘coal plane’ leading down to the railroad. These are the scarcely visible en- trances to the great bituminous coal beds under our track. Gimestone is plentiful, and not long ago the ldtal‘iron ores.were import- ed, but now the ores of Lake Superior are brought, here to bb yhade chiefly: into steel rails. As we go‘on down toward Pitts- burg the industries increase with every mile, To the left is the Connellsville coke district, where more: coke is made than in all the rest of the United States. In a few years the gases Bete wasted will furnish Taw materials fom aniline dyes, perfumes and all the flavors: which allure us to the soda fount. The ammonia converted into fertilizers will bring the cotton belt further north. “A few miles farther along and this natural gas becomes a feature in. the scenery, and Westmoreland county, to the left, has furnished the greater part of the supply. G Inthe Oil Region. * “At Oil City. anather industry began. with all the wild speculative excitement which has gone into history in line with the dis- covery of gold in California. Here the pipe line systems were developed, the ingenious seedbag was invented for stopping leaks, the methods of drilling and of shooting wells with nitro-glycerine, “Returning to the main road we now run down between the Allegheny and the Mo- nongakela rivers along a_tongue of land becoming more and more densely covered with. steal.works and rolling mills.

Becknam of this city, who for the past eight years has been a member of the board of visitors of the Western State Hospital at Staunton, has been again ap- pointed to that position by Gov. O'Ferrall. This is a marked compliment to Mr. Beck- ham, he having been chosen by three suc- cessive .gevernors, Lee, McKinney. and O'Ferrall for this responsible* position. For the past four years he has been president of the board, and ifere is no doubt of his re-election in Apyil.This is the first time in the history of the institution that one man has served four consecutive terms on its board. Capt. George A, Mushback of this city has been appointed d member of the board of visitors of thk Deaf, Dumb and Blind Institute at Staunton, and R,. W.

It is said that thoge interested in the es- tablishment of. @ ‘new andsrelable ferry line between this city and Washington will at an earty daté‘hold a’ mecting for per- fecting the scheme. They will build two new boats, capable df making the trip in twenty minutes. Those “in. faver. of the proposition say they are confident it would pay, as ten years ago, when the business between, the two cities was_a great, deal jess than it is now, each of the two old boats then on the line paid a net profit of from seven to eight thousand dollars a year. There is now but one boat on. the. line which can carry teams, and 28 a large number of the merchants ship their goods in their own wagons to Washington, they are greatly inconvenienced.

The minister reports that after the seven men had been in jail for ‘some time, two of the party, Dr. Gilman and Fred. Hoppe, confesved ‘to having comimitted the lynch- ing alone, and declared that the others knew nothing of the affair. Thereupon the five inngcent men were released.

He Makes It 2 Draw in Eight Rounds With O’Donnell. Steve O'Donnell, the Australian heavy- weight, was given a chance last night at Boston to display his form, and the showing he made against Jake Kilrain has undoubt- edly sealed his fate in this country, at least regarding his aspirations to the champion- ship. Although be had nearly everything in his favor, he failed lamentably to make even a good showing. The men boxed eight rounds, and at the end of the contest it was declared a draw by Patsey Shep- pard, who acted as referee. Joha L. Sullivan, who was an interested spectator, clasped hands with Kilrain in apparent congratulation, and swinging his arms, showed the latter how the fight might have been won. He was ready, he declared, to challenge the winner if the referee had only named oné. The ex-champion was finally led off by his friends, and the scene, which had caused the wildest excitement, ended. In the preliminary bouts Billy Hill of Washington, D.C., ‘“Muldcon’s Pickaninny,” and Sam Tompkins of Astoria, N. Y., fought at 137 pounds. In the first round the Pickaninny did some terrific in-fighting and floored Tompkins twice. Tompkins went to his corner before the call of time and the seconds jumped into the ring. Tompkins improved somewhat until the fifth round, when the colored boy knocked him out with a right uppercut. Nick Long was timekeeper. THREE FAVORITES WON. The Opening, Day at St. Asaph’s Was a Succes: The opening day at the St. Asaph track yesterday was, despite a terribly slow and heavy track, quite a success. The condi- tion of the track. had caused rather small fields, but the racing on the whole was fairly interesting, the finishes in the first three events being close, the others being won with lengths to spare. Father Daly celebrated his reinstatement by winning the first two races with Factotum and Golden Gate, at 8 and 6 to 1, respectively. The work of Starter Fitzgerald was good, his efforts comparing most favorably with the work of the high-priced handlers of the flag heretofore seen in this vicinity. Four- teen bookmakers did business, and there was a combination book and $i mutuals. Three favorites, a second choice and two outsiders won, as follows: Factotum, 8 to 1; Golden Gate, 6 to 1; Pekin, 6 to 5; Tar- entum, 7 to 5; Tusean, 3 to 1, and Hoey, even money. DOESN'T EXPECT HER TO WIN. The Vigilant to Be Brought Back for a Paee Maker. BALTIMORE, Md., March 19.—Mr. George J. Gould, who has been duck hunting in Maryland, returns to New York toda: Speaking of the cup defender, he said: “I think this boat will be the greatest that can be built. She will, I think, be several minutes faster than the Vigilant. I do not know, but I think it probable that Capt. Hank Haff will be the captain of the new boat. Last Tuesday Capt. Charles Barr sailed with a crew from New York to Southampton, England, to bring the Vigil- ant to New York. I expect them back with the boat early in May. “I am not bringing the Vigilant here with any idea that she can beat the new cup de- fender; on the contrary, I am virtually sure she cannot, but I expect to prove her a worthy trial boat, so that a line may be gotten on the merits of the cup defender. “If such an unexpected thing should oc- cur as the Vigilant’s beating the new boat, then the Vigilant will be placed at the dis- posal of the New York Yacht Club, but there 1s only the slightest possibility of the new boat being a failure.” In conclusion, Mr. Gould said: “I think this will be the greatest season’s yachting this country has ever known.” Cornell's Crew to Go Abroad.

Italy Satisfied at the Efforts to Ap- prehend the Criminals. Expressions of satisfaction having been made by the Italian government at the steps taken by the Colorado authorities for the apprehension of the murderers of the Italians at Walsenberg, the diplomatic in- cident occasioned thereby is regarded here as closed for the present at least. That satisfaction exists is shown by the telegram that was sent by Assistant Secretary of State Uhl to Gov. McIntyre of Colorado. In this telegram Mr. Uhl set forth the expres- sion of appreciation manifested on the part of Baron Fava, the Italian ambassador here, and of his government and of the federal government, at the energetic ef- forts made by the executive of Colorado to arrest the guilty parties. The assistant secretary received a reply from Gov. Mc- Intyre yesterday, in which that official said that the district attorney assured him (the governor) that he would use every means to secure the arrest and conviction of those who were guilty. The governor also said that he had issued a proclamation offering a reward of $1,000 (the limit under the statutes of the state) for the apprehen- sion and conviction of the guilty parties.
